Can't you just give me a full instruction?
What exactly am I supposed to write in the file to make sure it'll work?

Technically beginner traps aren't cheap deaths.
What does count as a cheap death is something unavoidable like starting at a room filled with spikes or lava that has no door or way out.
Plus, begginer traps teach the players to be aware and not let their guards down, just like in the FNAF games.

That's not what cheap deaths are. Cheap deaths are deaths that are hard to avoid and anticipate, like having an enemy fly onscreen out of nowhere with nothing telling you it was there. It has nothing to do with it being unavoidable. Beginner traps are also unfair to, well, beginners, since they're heavily based on trial and error, and having to memorize the level layout and what's a trap and what isn't isn't fun in the slightest. Also, why are these horror stages even in this episode to begin with?

I don't have time to keep talking about it, Mr. sarcastic. I'm tired of your negative perspective.

What? I was never being sarcastic in the slightest, where did you get the implication that I was? Also, I wasn't being negative at all, I was just giving you critisism.

You won't get far if you act like this towards criticism
Have a artivle what it means, and it certainly is not being sarcastic or negative.

OK. Sorry if I hurt anyone's feelings. I didn't even know what criticism is. I thought he would make others to refuse even checking my project.
But if it's just him saying what he thinks, and as long as it doesn't effect the thoughts of any viewers, it's alright.

This was legit and fair criticism. Get used to it man. We're all here to criticize and help you improve your level design! Try learning from it rather than negating the fact that he was trying to help you.

do you have any screens of any of the other levels in the project besides the TI2 levels? Because from what I can tell, you are practically slightly editing levels already created and calling it your own. Even if you credit the original creators, its still stealing.

what this looks like currently is pretty bad, but if you would like, i could help you out with this episode!

Hey guys!
It's about time for the 3rd update to be ready for downloading and testing.
This time the update features mainly bug fixes and more in-episode musics, as well as a few new levels.
The Demonic Era is now finished, and Galactic Adventure is almost finished (appart for it's boss stage), but the update really is more about bug-fixes.

I don't really need help. And don't criticize my episode if you didn't try it.
I also remind you that you can download the latest demo and try it. Look at my previous posts for more information.

Demo 3 is ready for downloading and playing! Check out the download links spoiler at the beginning of this topic.
Yet again, I recommend you to replace some of the musics and sounds in the SMBX app source files with the ones included in the 1st download link's attachment for full experience, especially because this time there are new sounds that should make you feel as if you're playing a modern mario game.
I also remind you that you MUST attach the added musics in the 2 other links to the folder of the episode itself, since it uses custom music almost exclusively.
I BEG OF YOU, this time TRY the episode and GIVE ME FEEDBACK!
